What it's like on the northernmost tip of Japan

Continuing the journey to Cape Soya, the northernmost point in Japan, I woke up at a hostel in Sapporo. I then went to Sapporo Station to ride the Soya limited express train to Wakkanai, the closest city. Along the way, I was treated to a beautiful view of the Hokkaido countryside.
After arriving in Wakkanai Station, I had to quickly board the bus to get to Cape Soya. This was the last bus I could take, because they don't run that often, and it would give me 30 minutes to see the northernmost point of the country. There were lots of different monuments there including the Monument of Peace, the Tower of Prayer, a statue of Mamiya Rinzo, and more.
In the distance you could just make out the Sakahlin Islands, a part of Russia. I saw as much as I could, but the temperature was below freezing, so I took refuge in the bus shelter until the bus arrived.
Afterwards, I got back to a hotel, then checked out the North Breakwater Dome in Wakkanai. Pretty cool structure, and added to the mystique of the frozen landscape. I then had a bowl of ramen at a little restaurant near the station called Hitoshi no Mise.
Then it was time to go to sleep for one last leg of the journey, heading back to Tokyo, but stopping in Sapporo on the way.

Pop open satellite view or street view if it's available, and just imagine what it'd be like to go explore there or work there. Seeing little houses and in these secluded spots, or scenic lookouts by the ocean that probably no one gets to experience except for a few locals.

You wondered what kind of businesses were up there… Since it’s the northern most point in Japan and closest to Russia every kind of Japanese military is up there as well, the Navy, army, the Air Force. And they all have bases and all kinds of radar and stuff. Also that is where some of the best kelp is gathered. Also, uni/ウニ and Hotate/ホタケare fished. I heard that those fishermen only work two or three months a year and they make a ton of money. Deer in herds come down into the city every night. My son runs a guest house up there and he says the deer are all over the place even downtown.

Bases are in central/southern parts of Hokkaido, and the northern bits are pretty dead for the cold seasons. Shuttered storefronts except for chains and convenience stores, unfortunately. As a restaurant owner, sea urchin increasingly favors California because it's freshly available throughout most of the year. I still think Hokkaido seafood is sooo worth it if you can get some before they export them

Less is more!
"I can see Russia from my house." My favorite island of the Rising Sun, Hokkaido.
Thank you for bringing me the memories from my childhood! :) I used to live on Sakhalin island, and I visited Wakkanai a few times, mainly because my dad used to work there every summer. He was an interpreter for Wakkanai Chamber of Commerce, and the business with Russia was thriving in the 90's and 2000's. Even the road signs were translated to Russian, because lots of Russian fishermen came to sell the goods (mainly crabs), and do some shopping in the town. I know that there's nothing much to see there in Wakkanai compared to the big cities, but if you're up for a change of pace - this town can still offer a few more things that you didn't see. First, you should've come in summer. It doesn't get really hot there, only 20-25 degrees Celsius in July - August, so don't expect it to be a beach resort. What you can expect, is the beautiful nature and the delicious seafood. I recall there was a ramen place that had a crab ramen, and and it was just perfect! Also, on the other side of Wakkanai bay there is cape Noshappu, and they serve sea urchin rice bowls there. Absolutely amazing! As for the rest of the attractions, there's also a Cold Current Aquarium at the tip of the cape Noshappu, they have seals, dolphins and even penguins. I totally loved it as a kid. In Wakkanai itself, there is a tower on top of the mountain. You can see it from pretty much every spot in the town. It has a decent history museum inside, and an observation deck. And yes, you can see Sakhalin from there, when the weather is good. There is a wooden onsen complex downtown. It is pretty good, and especially enjoyable when it's cold outside. And if I'm not mistaken, there's also a Russian cuisine restaurant nearby, also quite nice. And once you've seen it all and tasted it all in Wakkanai, you can take a ferry to Rebun and Rishiri islands. The the views are absolutely breathtaking. And if you're hungry - they can offer you a unique and delicious bowl of Rishiri kombu ramen. Well, that seems to be it. Man, I didn't even realize I missed this place so much. :)

I lived for a year about 80 miles south of Wakkanai as a High School exchange student. Many people claimed that Hokkaido reminded them of Wisconsin. Lots of dairy, snow, etc. . . . Wakkanai is farther south than Portland, OR. The continental climatic influence from Siberia really cools it off. Excellent work again.

I enjoyed the entire presentation of this northern most point of Hokkaido in the midst of winter. I could literally feel the chill our young guide was experiencing As he questioned out loud, "Now what would any soul want to do or could do out here in this inhospitable place?" But it has it's charm and as to be expected, so clean, neat and comfortable. Definitely worth a visit perhaps 3 months hence!!
I know "Life where I'm from" already did a piece on how much Hokkaido looks/feels like the Canadian prairies, but I gotta say as an Albertan, so much of that B-Roll could've been shot in Kananaskis. Gorgeous.

My favourite I've had on a train was on the way to Niseko/Kutchan from Sapporo. There's a stretch on the way to Otaru where the rain line runs right next to the beach and since I was travelling during winter it was covered in snow, on top of that it was sunset and lightly snowing so it was just this scenic, magical view of waves crashing onto snow during golden hour.
Discovered a beautiful song because of this, 宗谷岬 or Souyamisaki the song of Cape Souya.
Your story telling is very good, and your music is amazing.
here"s a tip.....Next time, go in July
Yes Northern Japan has 4 season's. JUNE, JULY, AUGUST, and WINTER.
Now i miss that place. Been there about 20yrs ago. Thank you that I’ve seen it again.
The music makes me feel like I'm playing a city-builder game and I dig it. edit: I also love places like this. There's something that clicks in my brain as well when living in a densely populated area, and then I can shortly be out in a beautiful rural landscape. I live in CT now, and I absolutely love the ability to go from dense city to a beautiful farm, hills, or forests in 10 minutes or less. Not quite the breathtaking landscapes as northern Japan, but I guess I could travel a few hours further and be in the mountains of VT, NH or Maine. Thanks for taking us on this journey! edit2: I also always wonder what people do for a living besides farming or harvesting the natural resources of the area in more remote locations. As someone pointed out, military presence is always a factor, but there are people that service the military, they service the farmers, the fishers, ferry/boat workers, the miners, the turbine technicians. There are probably general contractors up there for new buildings and all the office staff that comes with running a small business. Then there's always going to be teachers/school staff, municipal workers, fed/state government workers, lawyers (for various small companies and for local courts), engineers, doctors and their staff, and then all the workers and companies there to service them. As long as the transportation is adequate, which a lot of Japan's is, businesses and work can spring up in surprising areas!
Just by hearing the voice of the Japanese public transport makes me want to go back there.
I love the wind, gray sky, snow, emptiness.... thank you for the awesome virtual trip.

People, buildings, and business exist there for much the same reason they do here in Minnesota; it's not always cold and snowing. We are just as far, if not farther north, than Wakanai, but right now it is currently 90 degrees (f) and incredibly humid. 4 months of snowy winter with a brisk 2 months on both sides and 4 months of heat gives us plenty of time to enjoy life and build.
